Shinboner brother Mitch is batting beautifully. Hopefully we can eke out a lead of 200.

Like I said. A miracle is required.
Need the tail to wag significantly and Mitch to go on to make a big 100. We will need a lead of at least 250 to defend.

World-class mozz.

Hopefully the ICC suspend Rabada for test 3 and 4.
As he is currently tearing us new assholes....

Rumours they will rush Steyn back if Rabada gets the ban.

He has been suspended for 2 test matches.

Deservedly too. What an idiot

I's there a maximum penalty the ICC can impose? Not that I think Rabada deserved more, just curious.

Not sure Nate. But why on earth would you make physical contact when you've got a record of it

him missing could be the difference between the Saffas winning the series or not, all for some small minded macho rubbish

Even other short fused players of the past have been able to cool it for a while and wouldn't indulge in physical contact. I must say RSA are one of the last teams I'd expect this crap from.

 

[King Corey]

Pretty harsh on Rabada, was clearly provoked by Smith blocking the stumps.

Smith should've been looking at 2-3 matches out for that.

Graham Smith

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Lmao.

South Africans when Warner yells at one of their players: "No room for that in world cricket, need to eradicate it asap and bring the full force of the law down on him"

South Africans when their pace bowler is up on charges for intentional contact and screaming in an opponents face: "Y'know, cricket is becoming way too sanitized, they need to allow for stuff like this in the modern game".

Can Rabada appeal his sentence before next Test ?

 

[KiwiRoo]

Can Rabada appeal his sentence before next Test ?

my understanding is he can. not sure if he will

be good if both sides could get back to cricket instead of the pre school antics

 

[giantroo]

Can Rabada appeal his sentence before next Test ?

He can but I don't think he will. From his interview, he was already conceding that he needed to control his emotions.

 

[Heaps of fun]

Rabada is cool.

No unless he plays for Sydney, his name is Dunkley and it's the eve of the 1996 GF.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Either that, or his name is Barry Hall.

Or Trent Cotchin.

 

[muttley45]

Aaron Hamill in 1999 ?

 

[naturally north]

So Doveton had their B&F today......... rd 5 nn 2 votes I leapt up and headed for the podium, very ******* awkward, Mrs nn was in a state of " WTF is he doing".

Mrs nn placed third for the filly's on the field, lack of missing teeth and ankle tattoo's counted against her.

Looks like he is appealing to me GR,
